The dates given suggest that there may be confusion with Majdal Anjar (Chalcis ad Libanum) just a little to the south. Gerrha, or Ain Gerrha (modern day Anjar) was founded by the Ummayads at the beginning of the 8th century A.D. The plan is highly regular, and a Roman legionary would certainly have been quite at home in this camp, but it is in fact an Arab construction12.
